The Serenity Prayer

As modified in Wynona Judd's book, Coming Home to Myself.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (which is my Mom), the courage to change the things I can (which is me) and the wisdom to know the difference (which is hard!).


Boy, I can relate to her changes, but mine would read like so:


God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (my past, other people), the courage to change the things I can (myself, my future) and the wisdom to know the difference (which IS hard!)


Not so much of a funny today; more of a food for thought. Wynona's book is better than I thought it would be. I will have to read it again, except with a highlighter in hand.
